Suno prompt
A menacing metal track with explosive energy and a swung feel at 214 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a rimshot-forward snare and sizzling cymbals. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. An electric guitar leads, stating the theme plainly. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a slapback delay on the lead. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding melodic lead and low-end weight, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.
Paste this into Suno's style field. It describes the sound only — adjust anything that does not match what you are after.
